Top senators believe the US secretly recovered UFOs
Has the U.S. government secretly retrieved exotic craft of “non-human” origin? Newly declassified documents, along with extraordinary legislation, illustrate how two successive Democratic Senate majority leaders appear to have believed so.
What is Kona Blue? The proposed Las Vegas UFO technology program unveiled
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Information has recently surfaced shedding light on an ambitious program that would have researched UFO technology in southern Nevada, aiming to exploit the tech, interview witnesses to extraterrestrial activities, and study the physical and psychological effects of the encounters.
Code-named “Kona Blue,” Las Vegas would have been in the eye of the storm when it came to UFO technology investigations if the program had come to fruition. But why the transparency now? Dr. James Lacatski, formerly a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) analyst and missile expert, has some insight.
Is the Backlash to Universities Becoming Real?
In 2019, Ron DeSantis appointed Brian Lamb, a former point guard at the University of South Florida, to the 17-member board of regents for the state university system. The Florida governor, when he made the pick, was clearly thinking more about his athletic accomplishments than his ideological principles, as Lamb soon afterward became head of diversity and inclusion at JPMorgan Chase. It therefore probably shouldn’t have been surprising when, after the death of George Floyd, Lamb sent a memo to all presidents of public colleges in Florida demanding they “prioritize and support diversity, racial and gender equity, and inclusion” and telling them that they would be held “accountable for policies, programs, and actions” in this area.
India says Canada has offered no evidence it was involved in death of Sikh separatist
India says that Canada has shared no evidence to back up its allegation that the Indian government was involved in the death of a Sikh separatist leader in Canada last year, despite recent arrests in the crime.
The spokesperson for India’s external affairs ministry, Randhir Jaiswal, also reiterated India’s longstanding allegation that Canada harbors Indian extremists.
Three Indian nationals who had been living in Canada temporarily were charged on Thursday for their alleged role in the assassination of the Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia last year.
Schools in One Virginia County to Reinstate Confederate Names
After a meeting that lasted for hours, the Shenandoah County school board voted early Friday morning to restore the names of three Confederate officers to schools in the district.
With the vote, the district appears to be the first in the country to return Confederate names to schools that had removed them after the summer of 2020, according to researchers at the Montgomery, Ala.-based Equal Justice Initiative.
The vote rolled back a decision made four years ago, when the killing of George Floyd prompted nationwide demands for a racial reckoning. At a virtual meeting in July 2020, the summer of pandemic and protests, the board voted 5-1 to drop the names of two schools — Ashby-Lee Elementary and Stonewall Jackson High — that it deemed incompatible with a recently passed resolution condemning racism. The schools were renamed the next year as Honey Run and Mountain View.
You don’t disappear your history for George Floyd.
Record-Setting Migrant Arrests Continue in Canadian Border Sector
The escalation of migrant arrests in the Swanton Sector continues with back-to-back weekly records in April. The sector located along the U.S.-Canada border continues to experience record-shattering migrant apprehensions — month after month.
Anti-Israel protester, 16, arrested for vandalizing Central Park WWI memorial after father turns him in
A teenage anti-Israel protester who vandalized a World War I memorial in Central Park earlier this week has been arrested — after his father turned him over to the cops, according to the NYPD and police sources.
The 16-year-old boy was charged with criminal mischief in the third degree, a felony, and making graffiti, which is a misdemeanor, for allegedly defacing the 107th Infantry Memorial during an unruly demonstration on Monday night.
CHARLEBOIS: Want lower food prices? Sure, but be careful what you wish for
We are examining a significant shift toward food disinflation in Canada since January 2023, when food inflation reached an apex of over 11%. Currently, the inflation rate in grocery stores has moderated to less than 2% and is projected to dip below 1% by the summer. This phenomenon mirrors a broader global trend that reverses the steep food inflation observed over the past 18 months.
Chinese zoo defends dyeing dogs black and white to look like panda cubs
A Chinese zoo has been accused of charging customers money to see “pandas” that are actually just dogs painted black and white.
Taizhou Zoo, in the eastern Chinese coastal province of Jiangsu, unveiled a new exhibition featuring “panda dogs” at the start of May. Visitors were charged 20 yuan (£2.22) to see the new attraction.
But those who travelled to the zoo claimed the animals were actually chow chows, a dog breed known for its thick double coat of fur from northern China, and said the dogs had been dyed black and white to resemble pandas.
UN general assembly calls on Security Council to admit Palestine as member
The United Nations General Assembly has enhanced Palestine’s rights within the organisation and called for it to be accepted as a member.
Palestine has had non-member observer state status since 2012, which allows some rights short of a full member.
Membership can only be decided upon by the UN Security Council.
The US would veto a bid for full membership in the council, but Friday’s vote can be seen as a gesture of support for the Palestinians.
NOAA says tonight’s ‘cannibal’ solar storm could be worst in 165 YEARS and cause GPS and power outages
Earth could witness the worst solar storm in 165 years as five streams of plasma released from the sun this week are set to make crash into our atmosphere tonight.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) revealed Friday that the worst-case scenario would be what happened during the 1859 Carrington event, which set telegraph stations on fire and cutting communications worldwide.
In our modern-day society a geomagnetic storm – a major disturbance of Earth’s magnetosphere- of that magnitude would cause widespread electrical disruptions, blackouts and damage to critical infrastructure.
GET READY FOR A ‘CANNIBAL CME’ ⚡️
Multiple CMEs are heading for Earth
A new NOAA forecast model suggests that three of them could merge to form a potent “Cannibal CME.”
Cannibal CMEs form when fast-moving CMEs overtake slower CMEs in front of them. Internal shock waves… https://t.co/xcqdKXnHrt pic.twitter.com/Nj7POuilyq

How rallying around divestments helped unify Canada’s pro-Palestinian movement
The encampment of pro-Palestinian protesters at McGill University in Montreal is nearing the three-week mark, having survived heavy rains, a failed lawsuit to get them expelled and a sizeable counter-demonstration.
In an attempt to resolve the situation, the university said last week it was willing to host a forum to discuss the protesters’ main demand: that it divest from companies with ties to Israel.
But the student activists say they won’t leave without a firm commitment from the university to liquidate its investments in defence companies like Lockheed Martin, which they say are helping sustain the current Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
Divestment is how they spell Jew hate nowadays.
Did Biden’s Love for Hamas Just Lose Him the Jewish Vote?
Bret Stephens warned his New York Times readers on Friday that Presidentish Joe Biden “just made his biggest blunder” when he paused delivery of more than 3,000 much-needed aerial bombs to Israel this week. Stephens is the NYT’s Conservativish™ writer, so he must drag his readers to the truth like a dog on a leash when he figures out you’re taking him to the vet.
Carson Jerema: Rex Murphy kept conservatism alive in Canada
No one in Canada wrote like Rex Murphy. A thundering prose peppered liberally with humour and sarcasm and frequent lyrical flourishes, he expressed what mattered to Canadians in their bones. The best opinion writers persuade by tapping into deep emotions. Rex wasn’t just among the very best, he stood above us all. A true polemicist, his words combined to conjure feelings of anger, glee, disgust or relief. It didn’t matter what the topic, whether it was the latest outrage in Parliament, or his beloved home province of Newfoundland, Rex ensured his readers felt what he felt.
Ukraine says it repelled Russian bid to cross border
Ukraine says it has repelled a Russian armoured attack in the north-eastern Kharkiv region, after Moscow’s forces launched an incursion across the border and sought to break through defensive lines.
Kharkiv regional head Oleh Syniehubov said Russian reconnaissance groups had tried to penetrate the border, adding that “not a single metre has been lost”.
“Russia has launched a new wave of counteroffensive operations in the Kharkiv sector,” said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
